* Present Time *
Matthew and Serenity have been in the car for quite a few hours now, travelling towards the Midnight Moon Pack. They'd decided it would be better if they got there as soon as possible and Serenity did not want to anger her dear best friend, who may turn into Bridezilla herself.
She was nervous and anxious to meet them all, especially a certain someone with stormy grey eyes. As if feeling her nervousness, Matthew places his hand on top hers, while he drives with the other, and says "It's going to be just fine and do not to forget I'm going to be with you." She shoots him a nervous smile.
It is a five-hour drive and she realises that they were nearing their
"Um. You know that, um-uh." Courtney stutters out and she seems to be nervous for some weird reason that was unknown to Serenity, this only happens when she is hiding something or tries to lie about something. "Spit it out Courtney, I asked you a simple question." Serenity tells her, curious to know whose baby this was. "It's Damien's and Emily's, Okay? Honestly, I thought you would figure it out already, I mean he looks exactly like Damien, I guess not!" Courtney says and looks at Serenity with a wary look almost like she was expecting Serenity to burst out crying. Selene, her wolf whimpers 'mate has a child with another female'. She did feel pain
Matt and Serenity have been curled upon her bed for the past hour or so watching 'Titanic'. It was kind of funny how the person who was supposed to cry was not and the one that was not, was actually bawling their eyes out. She hears sniffling noises when the part where Jack dies at the end of the film from hypothermia, protecting Rose by having her float on a doorframe while he stays in the water plays on the screen. She turns towards her right and finds Matthew sniffling and sees tears trickling down his face causing her to laugh.
Matthew and Serenity have come out for a run, they have been sitting on top of a broken wooden log which overlooks the stream and the waterfall. It's so peaceful out here, the chirping of the birds and flapping of their wings accompanied by the sound made by the crickets. The water from the waterfall falls on to the stream in a steady pace never once breaking the rhythm which causes ripples to form on the water in a circular motion. They have been sitting in silence for the past half hour just looking into the scenery before them, both lost in their own thoughts. "Do you ever miss her?" Serenity breaks the silence by asking the question. Matthew immediately understand who she was asking him about, his mate. Its silent for a f
"No, I am the best man" a new voice joins in on their conversation, causing Serenity's body to stills after hearing his deep voice, she closes her eyes,cursing in her mind, she wishes that he would just disappear, that she was just a dream. But no, as she opens her eyes, he's still standing there in all his glory. His eyes holds a bit of amusement which she wanted to wipe off immediately, Sadly she didn't have the balls to go against an Alpha and secondly she valued her life, dearly. 'Great, I'm doomed.' She thinks to herself. Turning towards her left, when her best friend stood, she looks at Courtney with accusing eyes causing Courtney to avert her eyes from hers. Serenity was rarely anger
" I loved you at your darkest " - Romans 5:8 ▪ "You smell like him" he says through clenched jaw while grinding his teeth in a painful way. He lowers his head and buries his face in to her neck and place both his hands on her waist, a shudder passes through her body at the contact and small tingle zaps like electricity at the touch. Soon anger takes over her features when she his words register into her mind, she pushes him away, catching him off guard since he wasn't expecting her to do so, he stumbles back in the process, Serenity takes the opportunity and moves away, putting distance b
He stops when there is an inch of space between them, causing dread to fill her features when she hears the words leaving his lips. "Who was he?" With a dark look on his handsome face. She stays quiet contemplating whether she should tell him or not. She opens her mouth to say something but she's cut-off by a familiar voice. "Serenity, Wha- What are you doing here?" Matthew is standing at the door looking like he had run a marathon with his tousled hair and crumpled up t-shirt, his question directed at Damien. Damien had an angry look on his face when he replies "None of your fucking business, pup".
"You don't give up on the one you love" ▪ ️ Matthew, what happen-, why are you-?" She's immediately cut off when his wolf growls and grits out "He killed my mate" and this time it's her who was shocked with this new piece of information. "And what the hell do you mean by he's your father, I thought you and Alex had the same parents" he asks, she sighs in defear and replies in a tone which implies that she was not ready to talk about it at the moment. "No, I was adopted by the Martins when I was fourteen" Silence surrounded them as Matthew took in the information, meanwhile Serenity thought back to what he had said just a few moments ago, she was confused to say the least. "Wait, wasn't your mate and pack kill
" She wore her hope like a crown,An outspoken soliloquy of dreams. " - Ariana ▪️ She turns around but her reflexes are too late when she feels herself being hit on the back of her head with a powerful force. Her vision starts to blur instantly as dots appear on her vision. Darkness fills her mind and she collapses onto the forest floor naked in her human form. ▪️ Its been two hours since Serenity had taken off abruptly between their dance, and Damien had been looking around the reception area but he couldn't find her anywhere around the venue. Killian, his wolf had been nagging at him as if trying to tell him something but he couldn't point out what it was exactly. He spots Matthew talking with the former Delta's mate, who was also Serenity's M
